Continuing my addiction for all things dark blue (I just got a gorgeous dark blue and white Miu Miu dress that I have been wearing everywhere this spring!) is the Alina "Como" bag in dark blue alligator. Blue is as versatile as black but so much more lively! I loved the Como bag at first sight, it is one of the most interesting exotic bag designs I've seen. Combining modern functionality with classic alligator skin will make this a hit with both the young and not so young (meaning me and my grandma!). A lifelong passion for fashion led Alina Garcia and her younger sister Yamilia Halfon to create a line of timeless and chic exotic bags like the Como. Generously sized at 15 ½” W x10 ½” H x 6”, roughly the size of a 35cm birkin but without the $30k price tag. At $9,500, the Como is a real bargain! Alina bags available at 4510.
On a side note, I just received these adorable blue patent Joie Last Child Patent Leather Ballet Flats that I'll be wearing daily while introducing my son to the wonderful world of Disney in Florida next week. (A gift from my dear friend, the fabulous Shoe Goddess!)
This is stunning. And your new flats are adorable. Like you, I'm totally in love with all the blues right now!
I really really really adore that bag, to the extent that it's probably my favourite bag of 2007 so far - yeah, really! That colour is gorgeous, I am all about patent at the moment and what a timeless design... ahhhh I want!
Gorgeous bag. I completely agree with you on blue vs. black. So glad to hear you and your family will be at Walt Disney World. Believe it or not, I do PR there! I hope you enjoy it. Your flats are the perfect choice for trekking through the parks. I have a whole wardrobe of flats for exactly that purpose. I'm not out there everyday, but when I am, I refuse to sacrifice style for comfort. Love reading your blog. Thanks for the inspiration.
